Project Manager, Centre national de la musique

I am International Project Manager at Centre national de la musique (CNM). My mission is to help the French music industry professionals (labels, tour agents, publishers, managers, etc.) export their projects and connect with international professionals all over the world.

I have been working in the music sector since 2002 as Booking Agent (Zamora Productions), Production Manager (Festival de Saint-Denis), and since 2016 as International Project Manager at Le Bureau Export, which has joined the CNM in 2020.

Based in France, I lived two years in Russia, and I have been a regular globetrotter since then. I love foreign languages, genre films and bands with unpronounceable names.

Centre national de la musique (CNM) is a French State organization created in January 2020 to provide the French music sector with the tools and support mechanisms needed to develop nationally and globally. Acting as a hub for all French music professionals, it aims to support and promote a wide range of genres and represents all industry sectors – from recorded music to live shows and publishing.

Among its various missions, CNM fosters the international development of the French music industry and provides information about made-in-France artists, their professional entourage and the French music sector: expertise, consulting and recommendations, funding programs, market resources, promotion about the latest projects through the recommendation brand What the France.
